In real-world software writing, there's a huge pull towards nominalism (i.e. naming code parts by their domain purpose), but in my experience, the most useful way is to have structural names for internal mechanisms, then use their interfaces in nominal way by describing their role in the business logic.
That way, all nominalism is simply a descriptive wrapper over structuralism.
